Glamping and tent pitches near Talgarth in Powys with shower facilities.

About The Dragons Back

Talgarth sits in the shadow of the Black Mountains in mid-Wales, a quiet market town with a working clock tower and easy access to the Brecon Beacons. The Dragons Back is a campsite on the edge of the area that takes tents alongside glamping pods and static lodges, giving you options depending on how you want to camp.

The site has shower facilities on hand. Pitches are available for tent campers, and if you prefer a roof already up, there are glamping pods and static lodges to book instead. The combination makes it a flexible base for exploring the valleys and hills around Talgarth.

This place is amazing. The owners are so friendly and will chat to you as they come around. Beautiful location can see pen y fan from most spots. You can camp both on beautiful field and in a spacious forest. We will always come here when we want a chill non wild camping night.

We have just come back from here and can honestly say we had a lovely time. My husband, pup and myself had never been camping before so didn’t have a clue or what to expect. Drove in, found a suitable spot and made camp. Everyone friendly. Dogs on leads at all times as farm animals in fields. Farmer very friendly and does regular rounds. £7.50 per adult. Dog friendly enclosed area also. £8 for one hour. Drinking/pot cleaning water taps at gate and 6 portaloos, which are cleaned regularly. Short drive to Brecon town. Beautiful sunrise and sunset. If u like your sleep take earplugs as gets quite lively in the nights. 2 night stay was great, We will go back again. Happy campers 🏕️

We loved camping here, there's plenty of space so you don't need to be too close to other campers. There's portaloos here which is very convenient, and they were always stocked with toilet roll. There's taps that provide clean drinking water. The views are great, can't beat the view of Pen Y Fan! You are able to buy their wood for £5 a bag and fire pits are provided. For £7.50 a night this is perfect and we'll definitely visit again.
